Prep For The Gmat

Prep For The Gmat

Preparation course for the GMAT which is best? Veritas, Kaplan, Princeton, Manhattan?

Im at the crossroads of choosing a course of preparation for the GMAT, and I know your expirience, suggestions and our recommendations on the various packages GMAT preparation available.

When I was preparing for the GMAT, I knew I had to do some serious preparation - GMAT test many concepts that I had not seen since high school early (in any case!). I started to investigate some of the companies you mention, and I can not speak for all them, but I found some very mixed. On the recommendation of a friend who was with Powerscore, and was definitely the right decision. The instructor was extremely acute - he'd scored in the top 1% nationally in the GMAT (a requirement for all instructors), and was great in communicating test concepts. I found their approaches to be understandable and effective. In the time it would take the GMAT, I was pretty confident - I knew exactly what he was against it, and how to deal with it. But even I was a little surprised when he scored a 770 (which also ended up going with my first choice for the B-school).

Books GMAT test preparation or ideas?

im planning on taking the GMAT and I was wondering if anyone has any advice for study or about the test and whether they recommend any books, I'd like something with a lot of material through practice.

Just buy a book of preparation (which will cost around $ 35) ... If you are a native speaker will not have much problems .. you'll find everything you need in this book. Good luck!
